We started our summer kayak trip in Lienz Austria, then we went to Riva falls (Italy), then Switzerland. But we were really lucky that we had a lot of rain, and the river Sorba had enough water for the Devil slide in the beginning of August!

Playing on Sorba slides, Italy. Was messing around as it was our 3rd time down, went with a cross-deck boof, missed the boof stroke unfortunately and pencilled it and then went round a few times before getting spat out. Playboating skills coming into play a bit here.

My decision to go to the alps this year was fairly last minute and with plans already in place to spend most of the summer abroad I was originally a bit reluctant to go, however it seemed like too good a trip to pass up so before I knew it I was rushing out of uni the week before term actually finished and was on the road.
We originally intended to head to Austria, but it soon became apparent that this would mean a very wet week with less than ideal water levels for kayaking so by the time we got off the train in France we’d redirected the satnav for Italy and after god knows how many hours of Team America and Candy Crush Saga we arrived to sunny skies and perfect water levels in Valsesia, Italy.
